< Genesis 40 >

1 After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, naʻa na fakaʻitaʻi hona ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite.
2 And Pharao being angry with them (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker)
Pea tuputāmaki ʻa Felo ki heʻene ongo matāpule, ʻio, ki he matāpule ʻoe kau tauhi, mo e matāpule ʻoe kau taʻo mā.
3 He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner,
Pea ne tuku ʻakinaua ke pōpula ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, ki he fale fakapōpula, ko e potu ko ia naʻe nofo haʻisia ai ʻa Siosefa.
4 But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻakinaua ʻe he matāpule ʻoe kau leʻo, kia Siosefa ke ne leʻohi, pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ʻakinaua: pea ne na nofo ʻi he fale fakapōpula ʻo fuoloa siʻi pe.
5 And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
Pea ne na misi fakatouʻosi ʻae misi, taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene misi ʻi he pō pe taha, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau mo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene misi, ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe nofo haʻisia ʻi he fale fakapōpula.
6 And when Joseph was come in to them in the morning, and saw them sad,
Pea ʻalu ange ʻa Siosefa kiate kinaua ʻi he pongipongi, pea sio ia kiate kinaua, pea vakai, naʻa na matapeko.
7 He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
Pea fehuʻi ia ki he ongo matāpule ʻa Felo, ʻakinaua naʻe pōpula mo ia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku mo matapeko ai he ʻaho ni?”
8 They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed.
Pea na pehē kiate ia, “Kuo ma misi ʻae misi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakahā hono ʻuhinga.” Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinaua, “ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua pe hono ʻuhinga? ʻOku ou kole mo fakahā mai ia kiate au.”
9 The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
Pea tala ʻe he tauhi lahi ʻene misi kia Siosefa, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia; “Vakai, ʻi heʻeku misi, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae vaine;
10 On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
pea naʻe ʻi he vaine ʻae vaʻa ʻe tolu pea hangē naʻe litolito ia, pea tupu hono fisi; pea naʻe tupu ʻi hono ngaahi fuhi ʻae kālepi momoho:
11 And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
pea naʻe ʻi hoku nima ʻae ipu ʻa Felo pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae ngaahi kālepi, ʻo tatau ia ki he ipu ʻa Felo, pea ne u ʻatu ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo.”
12 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches are yet three days:
Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa kiate ia, “Ko hono ʻuhinga eni; Ko e vaʻa ʻe tolu, ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
13 After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou wast wont to do.
‌ʻI he teʻeki ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hakeakiʻi Ko e ʻe Felo, ʻo ne toe tuku koe ki hoʻo ngāue: pea te ke ʻatu ʻae ipu ʻa Felo ki hono nima, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ke fai ʻi hoʻo kei nofo ko ʻene tauhi lahi.
14 Only remember me, when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
Ka ʻoka ke ka lelei koe, ke ke manatuʻi au; pea ʻoku ou kole ke ke ʻofa mai kiate au, ʻo tala au kia Felo, pea fakahao au mei he fale ni;
15 For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
He ko e moʻoni naʻe kaihaʻasia au mei he fonua ʻoe kakai Hepelū: pea naʻe ʻikai te u fai ha meʻa ʻi heni foki, koeʻuhi ke nau tuku au ki he fale fakapōpula.”
16 The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
Pea kuo mamata ʻe he tangata taʻo mā, ʻoku lelei hono ʻuhinga, pea pehē ʻe ia kia Siosefa: “Naʻaku misi foki, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻulu ʻae kato hinehina ʻe tolu;
17 And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
Pea naʻe ʻi he kato ʻi ʻolunga ʻae ngaahi meʻakai, kuo taʻo kia Felo; pea naʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga manupuna mei he kato, ʻi hoku ʻulu.”
18 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets are yet three days:
Pea lea ʻa Siosefa, ʻo pehē: “Ko hono ʻuhinga, eni: ko e kato ʻe tolu ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
19 After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hiki ʻe Felo ho ʻulu meiate koe, pea te ne tautau koe ki he ʻakau; pea ʻe kai ʻe he fanga manupuna, ʻae kakano meiate koe.”
20 The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
Pea ʻi heʻene hokosia hono ʻaho tolu, ko e ʻaho fakamanatu ki he fanauʻi ʻo Felo, naʻa ne fai ʻae kātoanga ki heʻene kau nofoʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻa ne lau hake ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā, ʻi heʻene kau nofoʻanga.
21 And he restored the one to his place to present him the cup:
Pea ne toe tuku ki he tauhi lahi ʻa ʻene ngāue: pea toe ʻatu ʻe ia ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo;
22 The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
Ka naʻa ne tautau ʻae tangata taʻo mā; ʻo hangē ko e fakamatala, ʻa Siosefa,
23 But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
Ka naʻe ʻikai manatu ʻe he tauhi lahi kia Siosefa, ka naʻa ne fakangaloʻi ia.
